I have turned in all my applications except for the one that is due on the 1st of February! I am assembling some poetry for consideration in scholarships at two of them, which involves a great deal of polishing and going "aaaaaagh why don't I write short stories that are not fannish!".

ALSO I did Yuletide, because I was eligible for the first time ( Read more... )

Hey! It's great that everything's looking up. I wish your dad the best!!

Maybe you should "create" another TV show? ;)

:DD I can't stop smiling. Apparently just a little bit of happy is enough to make me THRILLED.

oh god, don't encourage me. WHY DO YOU DO THIS. *woe* you know how this will end up, right?

*grins* Oh yes, I know how it will end up! You already have the soundtrack to inspire you. *wink*

By the way, I found my old Bobbsey Twins books over the holidays- the lesser-known 1990's version I was telling you about? I've reread them and...you have to track them down! 1990's Nan and Flossie are awesome: Nan is so strongminded, and Flossie is sassy and outspoken. Plus 1990's Bert is mildly geeky and adorable, and Freddie is snarky and hilarious. :D

Ooooh! Now I'm going to have to scour libraries and used book stores, because that sounds SO awesome. :D

Major congrats on the applications, and good luck with the poetry!!

I'm really really glad things are generally good for you right now! <3333 I am grinning along with you!

Woot! I'm glad all this stuff is working out for you. That's great, Betsy. <3333

I hope your dad recovers quickly!

*huuugs*

Yay! Good luck with them all! And all the best to your dad.

:DDD I am alternately hopeful and terrified that I won't get in ANYWHERE or if I do get in they won't pay me enough money and OH NO. it is a very vicious cycle.

But now it's all just waiting and imaginary terror, so at least that's better. :DDD <33333

animus_wyrmis January 19 2011, 03:49:27 UTC

I am sure you not getting in ANYWHERE is an entirely plausible scenario! BREATHE, BB.
